stop Iran' s nuclear capabilities. What I am now concerned with is the response from Iran. Will they export more terror? Will they close the Straight of Hormuz? Or, on a more positive note, will they come to the table and negotiate?

He believes he can ignore the other two branches of government, both Congress and the judiciary - what experts did he consult and what were their qualifications and personal aims?? And yes, what will be the response from Iran? TFG thinks this is over, I tend to believe he is wrong and that he started something that may be impossible to stop.

The constitution in Trump's eyes is just a bothersome piece of paper.
